I believe it qualifies as theft. A vendor cannot steal your subscription when you have no breached the terms of service.

I would agree with that. I desperately wish that my subscription wasn’t already paid up until after the end of the ban because now I’ve paid for 14 days that have been literally stolen from me.

Actualy the TOS specificly states that they can action the account at any time for any reason if they see fit.

The funiest part is they dont give us the prove/what we did wrong, they just say we’re guilty and that’s it. Its so stupid.

No warning either, just totally out of the blue, for me the MOMENT plunderstorm started and to top it all off, at the end of the work day right during prime time for gaming.

I know a case here in Brazil they lost
Forget im gona bow out before i get into trouble.
No judge would side with a business that breached a consumer service contract when the customer didn’t violate any terms.
The reason why no one has taken action is that the effort isn’t worth the reward. The player base would simply find another game to play.
But how class action works is that one day, when there is a law firm that wants to take this one, they would gather all the grieved players and launch an action again the corporation. If it gets to court, Blizzard would lose all the cases where they could not justify an account suspension. Unless Blizzard had already refunded the gametime to the players.

Any class action law suit goes strait to arbitration.
Realistic you own nothing but the box and cd keys if u still collect the box.

this is a paid subscription service. We stand to receive the service that we paid for.

So back on track.
The only advise here that matters is that you appeal. That you keep appealing until they overturn it, sometimes that involves sending it to a specialist, or they say no more.
There was a two week RMT/gold buying ban that went out in classic affecting the raiders mostly there not too long ago. Idk how that worked out as far as false positives. But there were some posts in those forums about the ban.
Perhaps this was something similar, timed with the Plunderstorm stuff.
Good luck in yuor appeals.

So call your lawyer. Or, you know, just wait on your appeal.

Read the terms of service you signed. If Blizzard can prove in court that you broke the terms of service, they are justified in discontinuing service to THEIR account and content. A contract is a contract and works both ways. You pay for access and nothing more.

Blizzard reserves the right to terminate this Agreement at any time for any reason, or for no reason, with or without notice to you.
